(All my strength, haste thee to help me) Now, I know Yahoo (sorry spelling) has been negative frequently, but he has made some vaild points. However, his references are shaky. I consider him to be the "Wikipedia" of posting. Full of conspiracy theories with wavering vaildity and some being plasuible. I had read a lot of his posts and they're about half and half positive (advice, information, ideas) and negative (undermining Mods and Admins, rejecting ideas quickly, arguing with people). Forgive me if I can't remember every one of the posts and subjects as they are lengthy. Look at topics from about October 12, 2009 and on. I understand his skepticism about certain things, although he often goes to extremes. Overall I'd say he is about 55% helpful and 45% argumenative.

I understand how people can be annoyed but I don't believe he should be banned. This makes us look a bit like a Dictatorship who ignores the 1st amendment (Freedom of Speech and Press) censoring anything that is negative. If his ban isn't lifted, we'll look like hyprocrites who can say whatever we want but others cannot. For Pete's sake, look at Bill Mauer, Jon Stewart, and all of CNN news to name a few sickeningly biased, stacked cards, media producers.

I know we are all trying to make GM a better place and critisim hurts sometimes, but you can look at it and learn from it. If it is unjust critisim, just ignore it. I deal with pessimists all the time, many not as smart as YAAAHOOOO. I simply ignore them and don't let it affect me. If it really bothers people, just ignore his replies and post on only talking about the topic at hand. But if they are valid, at least spend time thinking on them about their reasonableness.

Should be a null option.

Personally I find his behavior rather humorous.

It is easy to spot an attention whore and a lot of fun to watch as they travel down the spiral.

In a way it is sad and I feel for them, we should strive to help people like yahoo but when a person refuses to help themselves its just time to get the popcorn and watch the show._________________All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be
